You won't make the kind of money you are looking for with a 1050, mining will take some time before you even make a $100 worth of crypto currency. If you want/need extra cash and as you are living in Romania, you will almost have to get a job or grow produce or raise livestock to sell. If you are of the working age which in Romania is like at any damn age you should dress presentably and go check the business and ask if they need any hired help.

 

Don't "become "special friends" with some of your other male friends" because whoring is not a self-respecting way to make money, if you ask any prostitute they will all say yeah it is a good way to make money and have a bunch of advice on how to let them "help" you do it the correct way while lighting a crack pipe or injecting some job strengthening "juice" into their veins.

 

Man good advice is hard to come by these days.....become special friends.....9_9

You can ask your parents if there is anything you can do for them for pay. Don't ask for too much; remember, they also feed you. xD 

i5 6600k and GTX 1070 but I play 1600-900. 1440p BABY!

Still, don't put too much faith in my buying decisions. xD

well in terms of making at real money at your age, you're going to be out of luck. just save up again like you did for your computer. In the mean time there's tons of amazing Free to Play games on steam to hold you over until you have money to buy them

but anyway,do these things to earn money

 

  • Mow some lawns
  • Do some Bitcoin mining/Cryptocurrency mining (best case: Your computer has a AMD graphics card) (both at the same time if u can)
  • Plant some trees and sell their fruits (jk)

And do it quick since steam has summer same going on,games are very cheap

Well,that if someone wants to upgrade his computer,usually people who dont have a lot of knowlage of computer building,etc,those will usually buy a prebuilt,those are one of the two to ask about building them a good computer. But we never know how many computer/it's parts we will have to deal with,xD,probably 200 for a good-experienced technician (per day xD )
